Horace frowned, then called back into the kitchen. "Hey, Mels, did you tell your ex where you were staying?"

Horace looked at Melany and frowned, rubbing the shaved side of his head. She was obviously still into him, even if Horace wasn't sure Ezra was good enough for her. He immediately wanted to say that she looked fine, which she did - to him, at least physically. But Horace knew she wouldn't agree. Maybe when she had her arm back. She at least seemed to be healing okay.
"I mean, I guess I can check on him and report back for you." But what kind of flimsy, shoddy excuse could he type in an email? He would never, never, ever admit to Melany living in his home. It would be tantamount to betrayal; it wasn't his secret to tell, it was Melany's. And if she hadn't told Ezra, then neither would he - which meant flat-out denial was the only option.
Quote: To: E. F. From: Horace N. bro i dunno what to tell you. most i can do is meet up, grab your message and pass it along to her if i happen to see her? im not a great courier service, but i guess if youre resorting to me youve exhausted other options. but like i cant guarantee id even see her. she hasnt been around town much lately, i feel. where? -horace
shibrogane oh man horace woulda gone for any other reason than 'melany lives with you' haha. he's super into not compromising her safety in any perceivable way

"Nah, you don't owe me anything, Mels. I'm gonna go wander around until the otherworld schloops me up so I can meet him. I'll see you in a bit, okay?" He stood and, as he passed by her, reached out to touch her good shoulder a bit. No shock; it seemed to be coming less frequently around certain people. "Don't turn into a worrywart like me." Then he was out, bag slung across his chest.

Some time later, he'd managed to find his way into the court. The space, as usual, had changed his clothing a bit, although this time it was a rather sober velvet suit in pearl grey. "Sorry, Ezra, it took me a while to get here. Nice shirt - that's a handy trick."
